Dear Andre and family, I am so very sorry about the loss of Jeannette. She was always kind and friendly to me. I remember one evening I was out walking for exercise and it got dark before I got back home. She came and picked me up in her car because there was a strange car on the street and she was worried for my safety. I will miss her sweet smile and her friendly waves across the street. I pray that God will surround your family with his angels and give you peace that only comes from Him. Your neighbor and sister in Christ, Annette Anthony
